This Album from Natalie Merchant had exceeded my expectations - which is not that tough, truth to be told; since Natalie Merchant had been very low-profile for a very long time, and I didn’t expect much from her.
Having said that, whenever a person said that something exceeded their …

Why Jennifer Lopez has gone in producing this video with only her as the star, I do not know. What I can tell, is that she could have made more sales with this awesome track (as it really has some interesting new beats!) if she would have featured other …

I’ve been too in love with this young girl ever since she released an album full of covers, but mind you, she literally treated those songs like they were her own. She polished alternative tracks so that the general public (who don’t like that genre much) would appreciate it. …

My All Cover Version by Siti Nurhaliza is awesome, and I’ve listened to her singing this cover version from Mariah Carey before. I really love it, and Siti sang using her own style of voice range and the sound is very cheery and awesome sounding.
For those of …

I bought this CD when the song “So Cold” was playing on the radio everywhere. I really loved that song with its haunting melodies floating above a hard rock edge. Unfortunately, the rest of the CD fails to live up to the promise of that song. It’s …

Misty Blue by Mary J. Blige and Monica is an amazing song that I’ve watched live on one particular concert; not sure what it is, but it truly rocks.
Both of their voices and vocal chords combined, makes a surprisingly very nice version of Misty Blue. Misty Blue …

I am a huge fan of 80’s idie rock and alternative. Well, indie period. My favorite band is Depechmode, and for the first time I have found something that they can be compared to. Now I’m not saying they are equal, but almost and if you are a Depechmode …

TP-3 Reloaded

If you can find something that distinguishes R. Kelly’s “Burn It Up” music video from Faith Evans’ “Burning Up” music video, other than the fact this is like a male-led version, you will get a date with any of the …

This band made waves when they released a great remake of the Lynnard Skinnard song “Simple Man.” “Burning Bright” and “45″ were the other singles released to radio that were every bit as well-received as “Simple Man.” And while these songs are easily the best songs on …

As one of the most popular country music songs between the years 2003 and 2005, the song ‘Sweet Southern Comfort’ by the first ever ‘Nashville Star’ winner Buddy Jewell is one that I will never be able to shake from my mind.
This wonderfully written song follows country music …

I purchased the Iida 5-String Banjo in 1974. This particular model is not for beginners but at the same time its not a high end instrument. I’ve used it for 35 years playing it for family, friends, and on stage professionally. The banjo features a heavy mahogany resonator, steel …

DESTROYER
A multi platiunum success that was THE album that put KISS over the top after the success of ALIVE and provided KISS with the missing component that made them popular to the masses.
This didn’t sit too well with KISS fans as KISS departed from their “Live in the Studio” …

Wow! I can’t say that word enough when it comes to Soundgarden’s debut album, Ultramega OK. The band that blew the door down with this powerful, 13 track album. If you’re into rock at all, then this is the album to start your collection with.
With powerful and meaningful songs …

Water Curses is a song by Animal Collective and is the title track of their 2008 EP release.

Although the songwriting …

If this is graduation it’s from a 2 year school. The sampling and tired metaphors from kanye west is old. Rap is about bravado but kanye is that times ten. He not only tell u he’s the best at rapping every other sentence he also mentions he’s the best …

Man on the Silver Mountain by Rainbow is one of my favorite songs of all times. Ritchie Blackmore’s hard rock guitar style is unbeatable and the very riff of Man on The Silver Mountain is one of the best riffs ever. Ronnie James Dio will always be one of …

Scarlet Begonias is a song by Sublime which is the tenth track to appear on their debut release, 40 Oz. To Freedom. I should mention that this is a cover of a pretty well-known Grateful Dead song which I’m pretty familiar with. What I particularly like about Scarlet Begonias …

You don’t have to be a child of the 80’s to know that there is tons of music out there from this decade that is simply marvelous. Out of the 80’s came a group called Tears for Fears. Much of their music has been sampled in the …

I think that the 1999 Issues is Korn’s greatest work. It is the first album by them that I got hold of, and I was strongly impressed by the music. I was rather young when I got a hold of this record, it was before their 2002 release Untouchables, …

Type O Negative’s brand of music has always been hard to digest for listeners like me and modern rock radio and the band’s October Rust CD is not helping to solve the problem at all. Not only the album will alienate the band further from mainstream music but might …

I am sure that people who were already grown up and alive in 2004 and 2005 must have heard some songs from this album. The songs on this record became very popular, and as a result of the success of their debut album, the band itself acquired stardom. And, …

Overview —“ Skin O’ My Teeth, another one of the four music videos and singles Megadeth released for their fifth record, Countdown To Extinction, is actually a song which has a darker meaning to it then I originally thought. I never used to think very much of this song, …

I love avril Lavigne so much since she came up first time with the single complicated and skater boy in her first album let go, so do in the second album under my skin. Her songs feels so rock.
But in the third album the best damn thing, I feel …

I have been a fan of the Black Eyed Peas music for some time; I like the mix of hip-hop, pop and dance, and it is great music to have on my IPod while working out. I downloaded their new CD, —˜The E.N.D.” as soon as it came out, …

“Satisfy You”
Forever

It’s hard to believe that this was the most successful single and music video from Puff Daddy’s sophomore effort, it’s not even a hit hit, it’s like sticking its head just above water on its tip toes in order to …

Wake Me Up When September Ends, the final ballad from American Idiot proves that although Green Day may have faltered on previous ballads like Boulevard Of Broken Dreams or Are We The Waiting, they certainly pull it off very nicely in the end. As I have already said, whereas …

The Fool is a song by Neutral Milk Hotel and is the fifth song on their album In The Aeroplane Over The Sea. Something I should mention about this track immediately, as a fair warning, is that this is the first instrumental on this record. I say as a …

Thoughts Of A Dying Atheist is the penultimate track which appears on Absolution, a record by Muse. Thoughts Of A Dying Atheist is led by a guitar riff which Bellamy sings along to for the introduction and verse of this song before going into the chorus of the song …

This artist clearly needs no introduction; I don’t think that there is anyone on this planet who hasn’t heard of Amy Winehouse by now! She’s constantly in the press, usually for all the wrong reasons but, that said, she is one talented singer. This album has got to be her …

Several years ago, and actually probably longer than that, I was visiting a friend back east and he took me to a local Best Buy. It was actually the first Best Buy I was in, but while there we looked through the CD collection and I ended up …

So, I was transitioning moving from one house into another. As I was packing the things from my room into boxes preparing for the move, I stumbled across one of the few original CDs I have ever bought: “Country Grammar” by Nelly. This is one of my favourite albums …

Every Breath you take by the Police is a simple song. The song talks about how this guy is saying that every thing his girl does he’ll be watching her cause she belongs to him. This song has a simple beat which I like quite a bit. The lyrics …
